Isla Wellness

Move well, eat well, unwind by the sea

Thailand Ko Samui paid

On Koh Samui, Isla’s wellness approach connects movement, meals and a beachside stay rather than treating a retreat as a stand-alone escape. Its roots are in a certified Reformer Pilates studio in Bophut, now joined by Isla Café and Isla STILL retreat experiences. Sessions take place at the studio, with accommodation at a five-star partner hotel on Bophut Beach, about seven minutes away; daily transport among the hotel, studio and café is included. The hotel has a pool and beachfront access, with a calm stretch of sand roughly 100 metres away. Café meals are prepared in-house around fresh local ingredients, and the kitchen can cater for vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free and many allergy needs when told in advance. It’s a practical fit for travelers who want structured movement and nourishing food alongside time by the water. Retreat packages start at USD 2,620, with airport pickup included.

A typical day

Daily structure varies by retreat, so confirm the schedule with the center. The experience connects sessions at the Reformer studio with meals at Isla Café and time at the beachfront hotel; transport between these venues is included.

Guests stay at a five-star partner hotel on Bophut Beach, about seven minutes from the studio. The hotel has a swimming pool, beachfront access and quiet rooms; daily transport to the studio and café is included during the retreat.

What to bring

Pack comfortable clothes for Reformer Pilates and light clothing for the island’s warm weather, which averages 25.3°C annually. Rain is more likely in October, November and May, so a light rain layer can be useful in those months.
